WARNING
Current legislation prohibits the use of the
"Temporary Spare" tire other than as a tem-
porary replacement for a punctured tire. It
must be replaced as soon as possible by a
standard tire. Road holding and handling may
be affected with the "Temporary Spare" in
use. Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h).
CAUTION
The vehicle must not be driven with wheels of
different dimensions or with a spare tire other
than the one that came with the vehicle. The
use of different size wheels can seriously
damage your car's transmission.
CAUTION
The vehicle must never be driven with more
than one temporary spare wheel.
The spare tire is located under the floor of the
cargo compartment. A retaining bolt holds the
spare tire and foam block containing tools in
place.
Accessing the spare tire
1. Lift the rear edge of the cargo compartment
floor.
2. Unscrew the retaining bolt.
3. Lift out the foam block holding the tools.
4. Lift out the spare tire.
